Despite Ivisic, Davis and Thiero all having two fouls for the final two minutes and only scoring two points in the final six minutes of the first half, Arkansas was able to quell the high-powered Alabama offense to just seven points over that same stretch. The Tide came into the night averaging an SEC-best 90.2 points a game.
